How Do You Actually Calculate ROI for Crypto Investments?

​Trying to get serious about tracking my crypto investments but struggling with ROI calculations. The formulas I find online seem straightforward, but how do you account for things like staking rewards, airdrops, and gas fees? Is there a standard way to calculate true ROI in crypto?

Re: How Do You Actually Calculate ROI for Crypto Investments?

I used to have the same problem until I found Paybis' comprehensive guide on return on investment https://paybis.com/blog/glossary/return-on-investment/ . The key is understanding that traditional ROI formulas need adjustments for crypto-specific factors. You'll want to track not just price appreciation but also yield from staking, liquidity mining rewards, any airdrops received, and importantly - all transaction costs including gas fees and exchange commissions. The guide shows how to create a weighted calculation that accounts for both your initial investment and ongoing contributions or withdrawals. I now use a simple spreadsheet template based on their method that automatically adjusts for these variables.
